Ana Cristina Biography

Ana Cristina might just be the next Mariah Carey. Blessed with a stunning five-octave vocal range, this Miami native has been wowing audiences since she was 6 when she made her television debut on Sábado Gigante.

Luckily, it didn’t take long for producers to recognize Ana’s tremendous potential; by the time she was 15 she was signed to a recording contract by Sony’s International Label, Sony Discos. Ana’s good fortune followed her into the studio as Sony provided her with an all-star collection of Latin music producers that included Rudy Perez, Manny Benito and Emilio Estefan, one of the founding members of the Gloria Estefan-led Miami Sound Machine. The result of their collaboration was Ana Cristina, a dazzling Spanish-language debut that immediately resonated with Latin-music fans everywhere.

Showing the savvy of a music veteran, Ana capitalized on her growing fame by recording theme songs for the popular soap operas Vale Todo and Vivan los Ninos,and she was chosen by the Univision Network to sing the theme song for its coverage of the 2006 World Cup.

Thankfully for her fans, this charming green-eyed chanteuse promises to return to the studio soon to work on her sophomore effort. "I am so proud to be Cuban American,” she says, “so I'll do the [next] album in English and then I will do another Spanish album."
